Channels_redis causing the error AttributeError: 'Redis' object has no attribute 'bzpopmin'

I am facing the following error message on my Django application:

This seems to be after a WebSocket connection is created with the WebSocket disconnecting after the error is thrown.

At first I looked at other similar issues that were caused by using a version of Redis lower than 5.0 but after entering the command redis-cli INFO | grep version I can see the version of Redis installed on my machine is 6.0.9 which also applies when calling a similar function from within Python.

At this point I think the issue could be due to an independent version of Redis running (perhaps from some other dependency?) but I cannot find evidence of this on my machine, or due to upgrading the version of channels from 1 to 3 and leaving behind some legacy code. I have not been successful in finding any similar issues to the one I am facing and not sure if either of these hypothesises are correct.
